I agree 3.00 is too tall for the street.

Matt what's the wait time on a 3.167 gear?

Thanks! They really helped me visualize the changes. Here is the link for the calculator http://www.gearboxman.co.uk/inforatios.html

I've seen you around Mark and I believe we spoke at TFB years back. I hope to run with you on track one of these days!

.......

Yes, hope to see you out there too this next season!
so these graphs are stock.. so you raised 1st and looks like second down a little.... i think the change looks good.. i like it ,as i mentioned , those are near the same speed vs RPM i get with my racer and its a dream on the street too.
you should see the spread sheets i used to make 15 years ago...

makes it easy to compare and make decisions.

francisluulu( sp?) sure has some tight gears and short too! very cup car like!

So you can make a 3.167 for the G50 Transmission? Is there an upcharge for these custom ratios?

Yeah, I don't generally makecstreet car parts. It is best mated to a 4.00 Cup final drive and most often a 2.00 2nd. I don't upcharge customs stuff. Just non refundable deposit and lead time.
